"Description
"NOTE - This app requires a camera and is therefore only available for the iPad2.
"Composite allows you to remix your surroundings to create artistic compositions. Inspired by the collages of Robert Rauschenberg's, this iPad 2 app gives you the opportunity to paint pictures using the live front and back facing cameras. Simply point your device towards your subject and start painting to reveal it. A variety of control over the brush and video stream is offered to allow for different aesthetics. These include brightness, contrast, colour offset, alpha, blur and thickness.
